No, I think that's still just
.:method()
This missing design rationale here is that the colon acts as part of the unary operator:
./ unary public-method-call-on-invocant
.: unary private-method-call-on-invocant
So the rule is:
One-character operator --> call on $_
Two-character operator --> call on $?SELF"Damian
